    Have you tried Schwalbe Marathon Plus or similar puncture resistant tyres?

    I went from a puncture a month to none in 2 years.

    I don't notice any extra rolling resistance.

    PS: OP, sorry to take your thread off topic.
    They're a very good tyre but a bit of a pita to put on ;)

    Maybe, but you only ever need to put them on once.

    Unlike other tyres that you need to remove and replace every time you have a puncture. :D


    In truth I don't recall any problem fitting them to my rims but that was over 2 years ago.
